Badalte Huye Saathi (Episode 10th)(Mukesh sings with Lata Mangeshkar)
———————————————————————

I am of the firm opinion that sad songs are best sung by 1) Mukesh 2) Talat and 3) Hemant Kumar. Though I like Mohd. Rafi very much, he is not among the first 3 names for sad songs in my list. The pathos one finds in the voice of Mukesh in unmatched !

Badalte Huye Saathi (Epiosde No. 9) ( Shamshad Begum sings with Mukesh)
———————————————————————————
To be a multi-lingual person is good. Knowing more languages-not just knowing, but speaking many languages has its own advantages. I had the built in advantage of having been born in a Multi-lingual state of Hyderabad. Starting with Urdu, I soon learnt Marathi(Mother tongue), Hyderabadi and Pure Hindi, Telugu and Kannada. Because of my father, I learnt Sanskrit, but could not master it, though I am well conversant in it. After coming to Bombay,I learnt Gujarati so well that I can read Gujarati papers, books and E Mails etc.

Badalte Huye Saathi (Episode No. 8)(Shamshad Begum sings with Mohd. Rafi)
————————————————————————–
A few days back, I met one of my old colleagues after many years. After exchanging pleasantries, he asked me,” you look to be absolutely fit and fine. What are you doing these days ? ” I told him that I spend my time on Internet and that I write articles on old films and music. He looked at me with disbelief first and then with pity.

Badalte Huye Saathi (Episode No. 7) (Shyam Kumar sings with Mohd.Rafi)
————————————————————————

Film Industry is truly a Maya Nagari. No one knows how the luck will change the course of one’s career in Film and Music world. Who would have thought that an ill-nourished looking, slim, imple girl, wearing an ordinary cotton saree, with torn kolhapuri chappals-who waited on an empty stomach for whole night for just one song from Ghulam Hyder-would one day become the undisputed QUEEN of playback singing in Indian Films ?….

BADALTE HUYE SAATHI- Episode No. 6 (Hamida Bano sings with Shyamkumar)
—————————————————————————-

When I planned this series I knew that this subject is very vast and it was not possible to cover all major singers in such a short series. According to a source, from 1931 to year 2000, a total of about 7000 actors (male and Female) acted in Hindi Films in small and big roles. There must be atleast 1500 well known actors and the pity is, we do not have complete information on even 500 actors. For majority of actors, there are no Photographs ( remember, for a considerable time, how difficult it was to get a photograph of Shamshad begum or Madhubala Jhaveri ? ). So we know nothing about them except their names.

Nainon se naina milaa ke – Song no. 8
——————————————-
ishq qaatil se bhi, maqtool se hamdardi bhi
ye bata kis se mohabbat ki jazaa maange gaa ?
sajda khaaliq ko bhi, iblees se yaarana bhi
hashr mein kis se aqeedat ka silaa maange gaa ?

(Allama Iqbal)

When in doubt tell the truth. (Mark Twain)

There are innumerable ‘when in doubt…’ quotes out there from ‘when in doubt wear red’ to ‘go public’ to ‘throw it out’. Just to give the briefer ones. There are some sensible ones like ‘do not react’ or ‘sleep over it’. For someone like me fortunate enough to know Urdu, it makes sense to turn to Urdu poetry.
